The trivia of materialism, dualism and hylomorphism
some pointers from John Buridan and others
Gyula Klima
pp. 45-62
Klima's chapter offers a precise positioning of Buridan's metaphysics of the soul on the theoretical spectrum ranging from materialistic monism to Cartesian dualism, contrasting, within that range, Aquinas' and Buridan's versions of a hylomorphic account of the human soul as the single substantial form of the human body, as opposed to various versions of pluralist theories of substantial forms which they both denied, as well as to the materialistic version of hylomorphism offered by Bill Jaworski in the recent literature on the philosophy of mind.
